Drinking alcohol key to living past 90

Not really. Lots of old dead people- to the rate of tens of millions- dyed their hair. Did hair dyeing lead to their death? Of course not. Are they correlated? Certainly.

Is it?

Hair dye (powder) and cosmetics used to contain loads of arsenic.

Regardless, common sense weeds out obviously incorrect suppositions i.e. - All people drink water. All people die. Therefore, drinking water kills you.

I have known and am related to my fair share of people in their 90's and 100's. All of them drank, smoked, and used coffee. I want to start drinking again if I know I am on my last leg but maybe I should start sooner rather than later. But I am not real fond of beer or wine.
Muslims aren't fond of beer or wine either. Why are you promoting Islam? Since you are Muslim you have to go back to your own country.

Try Cider,,

An Apple a Day.
Muslims eat apples too. Why are you promoting Islam? Since you are Muslim you have to go back to your own country.
 
If drinking alcohol is key to living past 90, I'm gonna live past 120+ for sure
 
Correlation still implying causation, apparently. Even though people still spend 12+ years in school.

Guess the fact that that French woman who lived the longest, who smoked her whole life, indicates we should all start smoking to boost our longevity.

She had a very unusual routine:

"After her admission to the care home Maison du Lac [House on the Lake] in January 1985 at the age of 109, she initially had a highly ritualized daily routine whereby, uniquely among the care home residents, she requested to be woken at 6:45 am and started the day with a long prayer at her window thanking God for being alive and for the beautiful day which was starting, sometimes loudly asking the reason for her longevity and why she was the only one alive in her family. Seated on her armchair she did gymnastics wearing her stereo headset. Her exercises included flexing and extending the hands ("a distinguished woman must have beautiful hands"), then the legs, and her carers noted that she moved faster than the other residents, who were 30 years younger, despite her blindness. Her breakfast consisted of coffee with milk, and rusks.Her morning ablutions included washing herself unassisted with a flannel rather than taking a shower ("an odd invention"), and applying first soap, then olive oil and powder to her face. She washed her own glass and cutlery before proceeding to lunch. She enjoyed daube (braised beef) but was not keen on boiled fish. After the meal she smoked a Dunhill cigarette (formerly a cigar, a habit she had acquired from her husband) and drank a small amount of Port wine. She enjoyed chocolate (and at the age of 112 received a delivery of 800 kilogrammes after challenging a TV presenter – this was then distributed to care homes), and made herself daily a fruit salad based on banana slices and squeezed orange.

In the afternoon she would take a nap for two hours in her armchair, and then visit her neighbours in the care home, telling them about the latest news she had heard on the radio. At nightfall she would dine quickly, return to her room, listen to music (her eyesight now being too poor for her favorite pastime of crosswords), smoke a last cigarette and go to bed at 10pm."

I dislike all alcoholic drinks. I could never swallow more than a sip. It tastes awful! I just can't get myself to like even the sweetest of wines. I don't drink it at all and don't care to acquire that taste.

There are other lifestyle and genetic factors that play a role in longevity and are far more influential.
